Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On May 17, 2021, Stealth Biotherapeutics Corp (the “Company”) entered into an Amendment to the Development Funding Agreement (the “Amendment”) with Morningside Venture (I) Investments Limited (“Morningside”). Under the Amendment, Morningside has agreed to pay to the Company additional funding as contemplated by the existing Development Funding Agreement dated as of October 30, 2020 of (i) $8 million within five business days of May 17, 2021, (ii) $11 million on or about October 1, 2021 and (iii) $11 million on or about December 1, 2021. The Company is required to issue a warrant to Morningside under the Development Funding Agreement in connection with each such additional funding. Each warrant has a term of three years and is issuable for the number of ordinary shares of the Company (“Ordinary Shares”) equal to the quotient of 30% of the amount of the funding divided by the applicable exercise price, which is equal to 115% of the implied price of the Company’s Ordinary Shares on the date of issuance of the warrant based upon the closing price of the Company’s American Depository Shares as listed on the Nasdaq Global Market. The Company issued a warrant to Morningside exercisable for 18,750,000 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $0.16 in connection with the February 2021 payment to the Company.

The foregoing description of the Amendment and the warrants is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment and the form of warrant, a copy of each of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2, respectively, and each of which is incorporated herein by reference.

 

On May 17, 2021, the Company issued a press release announcing entry into the Amendment. The press release issued by the Company in connection therewith is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. The information in Exhibit 99.1 shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), nor shall be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
